Hi guys,
I was chatting to Smut & Helzy on Tues night about a CF christmas party. They suggested the chinese at the top of Lurgan (near Craigavon Office Supplies).
What does everyone think??
November 7th, 2008 at 9:45 am

Carbs!
NO NO NO NO!

November 7th, 2008 at 9:47 am
my i suggest to crossfit NI that a hero WOD pre-dinner would b a nice touch. hehehe
November 7th, 2008 at 9:55 am
Thats a deal!!
November 7th, 2008 at 10:01 am
Yeh Maz sounds great count me in! Stevie are you serious…WoD before we go…are you trying til kill us. Was thinking more like a few drinks….drinking games
??? BTW you guys trying til kill me today 4x800m runs and me only back!
November 7th, 2008 at 10:13 am
I think you may have mistakenly put an extra nought on the end of the 80m. Do you provide matresses for rest between rounds or will St Johns Ambulance be waiting for me at the end!!
November 7th, 2008 at 10:45 am
talking of drinkin games, how about first and last people to finish the must down three shots post WOD!
think thats a cert to name the bucket!
November 7th, 2008 at 11:12 am
Why not forget about the WoD and down the shots anyway?
Reckon then i definitely be a cert to name the bucket! Me don’t do shots…its always messy.
November 7th, 2008 at 11:30 am
How about 10 shots for time???
November 7th, 2008 at 11:32 am
Sounds perfect Helen! And will you be partaking? I reckon i might try that as r’xd
November 7th, 2008 at 11:42 am
Right count us in too, just give us a date so we can organise babysitter. Stevie thats not fair – you’ll be first and I’ll be last and I can’t hold my drink at best of times – Jonny will be complaining I talk too much!
November 7th, 2008 at 12:29 pm
Lol lisa, i was planning on jonny being first so we could all hav a laugh at him throwing up!
helzy, ten shots for time?! If i wanta do that as rx’d ide better put in some training this weekend. 
November 7th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
That was me posting under helen again!
Lisa when have I ever complained about you talking to much.
I’ll do the 10 shots for time no problem and then fill the bucket in half the time.
November 7th, 2008 at 1:16 pm
Sorry, forgot to say after the shots might be an interesting time to do the burpee challenge…should be bout day 70-80ish
November 7th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
Ok this is turning in to the training session/niteout from hell! Well they do say crossfitters do it better.
lol
November 7th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Great idea for a new workout called “drunken Orla” the boys in Dublin would love this,
for time
1 shot 10 burpees
2 shots 9 burpees and so on until
10 shots 1 burpee
November 7th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
Brilliant workout that! Have done the scaled version of that before:
1 shot sprint to the bar
2 shots sprint to the bar…
5 shots sprint to the toliet
Haven’t actually made it up to the full 10 shot mark – but hey there is always this weekend!!
Any thoughts for a post-party WOD?
Need to get a date sorted – can yous all post when doesn’t suit?? Assuming it will be a Frid or Sat night in December…
November 7th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
jonny stop tryin til get me in trouble with the dublin ones! Once was bad enough and i’m still afraid! Yeh would def love til give that workout a go. Reckon it would be fun. But could imagine a few injuries! Maz think i’m available 4 all social events apart from 19th dec.
November 7th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
Hold on I didn’t read the WoD right…finishing with 10 shots…are ya mad?
November 7th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
I’m out for the 20th December..
Stevie can we persuade you to don a Mr Claus outfit for the event?? Jonny I even have a nice Mrs Claus outfit you can borrow!!!
(WOD’s to be completed in full outfits)
November 7th, 2008 at 2:57 pm
Maz any clues as to why you have a Mrs Claus outfit??
November 7th, 2008 at 3:03 pm
You ever been on holidays in Kavos???
November 7th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Guys, do ye realise that the wod you’re suggesting involves downing 55 shots? Now I can pretty much guarantee that I’m the biggest alco in Crossfit, but even I have my limits. Now there def has to be a shot challenge, I’m just not sure this particular one is so great. How about, every time a certain signal is given, everyone has to drop and do 10 burpees. Loser has to do a shot. So this could be a workout and a boozeup, and is far less likely to end with the entire group in Casualty getting their stomachs pumped out!
November 7th, 2008 at 3:20 pm
Does anyone actually work for a living? Any date suits us except 5th and 6th Dec. I was thinking maybe Christmas fairy (the boys in Dublin wouldn’t mind seeing you in that Orla) and elf – men in tights – that could get one running to the bucket without a drink – depending of course on the package.
November 7th, 2008 at 3:27 pm
Lisa me in a fairy outfit would not pretty! Believe me!
Not so sure bout the men in tights either! Maz never been to kavos but i assume it may be cold there. Yes Ro 55 shots does sound like a lot when you put it in that. On the other hand am pretty sure I would lose the burpees anyway and end up hammered!
November 7th, 2008 at 3:42 pm
Lisa we all work v hard dont u know! Maz ill commite to wearing a santa hat at least, after that well just hav to wait an see.
lol the entire Crossfit NI team ending up in the hospital after a wod really does sum up our train mentality! Haha 
November 7th, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Any chance someone might use the comments page to log their times some day??
November 7th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
Gold star for me…i’ve done it the last few times!
November 7th, 2008 at 4:37 pm
Hang on Jonny, you’re the one who used the comments page to suggest a 55 shot wod!
November 7th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
Nah Orla, Kavos is in Greece, have been there for hols a few times and ended up with rather unusual outfits!!
So i guess thats the weekend of the 12/13th Dec??
Any preference to the Fri or Sat night?
Jonny I promise that I will log my times for the Xmas party WOD
November 7th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
jonny we post our WOD results in our training logs!stop bitching
may i suggest we go sat the 13th, no crossfit classes until 2pm on sundays and no one wants a repeat of the stevie disappearing act mid WOD! lol
November 8th, 2008 at 2:27 am
Two words my friends, Tabata shots!
